Venus Visits Vermont

 

Venus, the Roman goddess of love, beauty, and fertility, can be seen throughout the world captured in the essence of a woman.  Venus is responsible for all variations of love, from emotional beauty to the sensual attraction based on lust.  Just as Venus is known to have descended from Zeus, the governor of the sky and sunlight, beauty is made visible by natural light.

 Being raised in Springfield, Vermont, home to Stellaphane and being a Cosmo at Springfield High, I was raised in an environment full of telescopes and fascination with the heavens.  My father and brothers built telescopes to observe the stars, so I imagine my inspiration for this “Star Party” came from my upbringing in Vermont.

 My philosophy, coming from the traditions of the Boston School, an institution combining Neoclassicism with Impressionism, America’s oldest continuing school of painting, is based on sound drawing, sensitivity to values and an impressionistic viewpoint.  I prefer working from life, and I find sunlight to be fascinating as it contrasts between warm and cool, light and shadow.  Zeus would agree.

 

 

 

 

Good and Plenty
________________________________



2001 - 2002

 

"Good and Plenty, Candace Whittemore Lovely"  is a show of paintings using the 2 opposite values, black and white with a medium hue of pink,  based on a theory that opposites attract.  You should think of the whole show as a metaphor to other combinations of opposites.

Using the opposite values of white and black with a medium hue of pink are continuous in many different subjects, and it helps explain how opposites attract.  In this situation black and white are the opposites, but because the show lacks in other opposites like blue and yellow, the show makes you think of what is missing and think of what is responsible for attracting the viewer to a painting.
